Changes a query name, description, or the category it belongs to.
int
ade_qlsetquery(
ade_id qry_id,
char* info,
struct resbuf* value);
Returns RTNORM or an error code.
qry_id | Query ID. |
info | Type of information to modify. See the Query Properties table below. |
value | New value (type varies). |
name | Name of query (RTSTR), up to 31 characters long. Must be unique, contain no spaces, and start with an alphanumeric character. |
description | Description of query (RTSTR), up to 132 characters long. Can contain spaces. Must be unique and start with an alphanumeric character. |
category | Category ID, (RTREAL). |
This function does not change file name or storage type.
A query gets a name and an ID when it is saved to a query category of the query library. A new query that you have not yet saved does not have a name or an ID.
The following sample creates a resbuf containing the updated option value. The id for the query to be modified is then obtained with ade_qlqrygetid(). Ade_qlsetquery() is called with all required parameters, the returned result code is checked for RTNORM and displayed. Then it releases the resbuf, as required.
char* pszQueryProperty = "name"; char* pszQueryName = "RtList"; struct resbuf* pQueryPropValRb = acutBuildList(RTSTR, "MyRenamedQuery", 0); ade_id queryId = ade_qlqrygetid(pszQueryName); if(queryId != ADE_NULLID) { int returnCode = ade_qlsetquery(queryId, pszQueryProperty, pQueryPropValRb); if (RTNORM == returnCode) { acutPrintf( "\nThe query %s property has been modified." , pszQueryProperty); } else { acutPrintf( "\nThe query %s property has not been modified." , pszQueryProperty); } } acutRelRb(pQueryPropValRb);
